BULL'S HEAD INN #
9 Bowram Street
- corner of Mount Pleasant -
pp. Court Leet Records - "The Bull's Head is at the north-west corner of the Mount Pleasant intersection."
*
The address of this beerhouse has been variously given as:
8 Bowram Street [1853]
9 Bowram Street [1869] and
Corporation Street [1895]
In the 1901 Census it was again given as 9 Bowram Street
*
It is within the range of probability that the "Bull's Head," or,
perhaps another building on the same spot, had been in
existence since 1741. There is an entry in the Court Leet Records
of that year that records a Bull's Head in Mount Pleasant,
which runs off Bowram Street, and more than likely stood
at the junction of both streets.

The following is part of a letter I received form somebody who was researching
part of their family history. It involved one of his step-relations.
For anyone looking at the history of Betsy Hindle (Bull's Head Inn in 1895)
it may be of some use:-
